	Columbia Theatre For The Performing Arts The Columbia Theatre for the Performing Arts is a historic theatre located in downtown Hammond, Louisiana. History The theatre opened on September 1, 1928, the same year that Hammond Junior College became Southeastern Louisiana College. Originally designed for the presentation of motion pictures, vaudeville acts, and local theatrical productions, the Columbia was the largest theater in Hammond. It featured the first theatre organ and the first talking pictures. The Columbia became the center for entertainment during the depression and war years of the 1930s and 1940s. By the 1950s and 1960s, the theater needed to be renovated. This was an era in which downtown businesses were suffering due to the development of regional malls and subdivisions. Although a sincere effort to remodel and reopen the theater was made in the late 1970s by businessman Wiley Sharp, it proved to be too challenging for one individual. By the early 1980s, the Columbia was vacant, leaking, and infested with t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

picture info	Columbia Theatre (New York City) The Columbia Theatre was an American burlesque theater on Seventh Avenue (Manhattan), Seventh Avenue at the north end of Times Square in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. Operated by the Columbia Amusement Company between 1910 and 1927, it specialized in "clean", family-oriented burlesque, similar to vaudeville. Many stars of the legitimate theater or of films were discovered at the Columbia. With loss of audiences to cinema and stock burlesque, the owners began to offer slightly more risqué material from 1925. The theater was closed in 1927, renovated and reopened in 1930 as a cinema called the Mayfair Theatre. It went through various subsequent changes and was later renamed the DeMille Theatre.
